the present chapter addresses a research gap by exploring whether and how the collaborative communities represented by CSs tried to maintain viable knowledge strategies even during the COVID-19 pandemic. This goal is achieved through an analysis of selected European CSs practicing knowledge sharing and R&D activities. The methodology consists of semi-structured interviews with CSs managers in two time periods: 2017 and 2021. In sum, the rationale of the research is to frst stress the diferences and similarities in knowledge strategies that CS managers have developed and implemented regularly during the pandemic. The second objective is to show how the managers have reinvented practices to keep collaborative communities and knowledge transfer viable in the (post-) COVID-19 world. We recognize that these strategies may be unique based on the size and structure of CSs, following their intrinsic fexibility and knowledge-intensive interactions.

Abstract

the present chapter addresses a research gap by exploring whether and how the collaborative communities represented by CSs tried to maintain viable knowledge strategies even during the COVID-19 pandemic. This goal is achieved through an analysis of selected European CSs practicing knowledge sharing and R&D activities. The methodology consists of semi-structured interviews with CSs managers in two time periods: 2017 and 2021. In sum, the rationale of the research is to frst stress the diferences and similarities in knowledge strategies that CS managers have developed and implemented regularly during the pandemic. The second objective is to show how the managers have reinvented practices to keep collaborative communities and knowledge transfer viable in the (post-) COVID-19 world. We recognize that these strategies may be unique based on the size and structure of CSs, following their intrinsic fexibility and knowledge-intensive interactions.
